Nonthermal Concentration of Red Beetroot Juice by Reverse Osmosis and Forward Osmosis. [PDF]
RO and FO were used for nonthermal concentration of red beetroot juice. Single strength juice was concentrated by RO to 17 °Brix, and by FO to 50 °Brix; color and betalain were preserved by both processes. Overall, FO is a promising method for concentrating beetroot juice.
